GOING LIVE: Mac Miller

MAC MILLER, TFHOUSE KOOL HAUS, TORONTO / JUL. 17

Kidz just want to have fun. He may not be crunk, swimming in riches or sampling retrospective Motown recordings, but Pittsburgh artist MAC MILLER is doing one thing: touring hard. The Pittsburgh MC hasn’t let up and on a headlining run in Toronto at the Kool Haus, the 19-year-old opened a door for local musician TFHOUSE. The act of kindness may seem ordinary, but for a hip hop artist who’s taped with stereotypes like “backpack, weed rapper”, the gesture – not to mention a remarkable live performance – shows Mac Miller is intent on making a statement.
